Abstract - As the world is stepping towards the digital
way, most people tend to select best of methods so that
would make their work effortless. Usually People travel
to many unknown places and it would be difficult for
them to locate the places like schools, hotels, hospitals,
temples, ATM etc… Even though the user gets help from
people to reach their location, at some situations the
user may find it difficult when people are not around
them for help. Due to an misinterpretation in route or
may be the person could not understand the foreign
language, unfortunately he may land up in anunwanted
place. To puzzle out this issue with the help of the
technologies an android application is developed. So
when the user visits an unknown location he may reach
his destination without any difficulty. GlobalPositioning
System (GPS) is the main functionality of the travel
sequence android application. The application requires
the users to mention their source and destinationsothat
it can provide them their desired locations and guides
the user to his selected location with ease.
Key Words: Point of Location(POI), GPS(Global
Positioning System), Google Map, Android, LSBN.
1. INTRODUCTION
The main purpose of this project is to develop an user-
friendly applicationthat guides the user to an point of
interest. Android application is an open source mobile
operating system massive user base and simplified
mobile app development process. The travel sequence
android application provides the user with the
categorical options like hospitals, hotels, schools,
tourist places etc.. So that the user could select his
required destination location with ease. This paper is
organized as follows. Section 1.1 illustrates the
Literature survey. The proposed work makes use of
android application that links with the social media to
suggest the user to the location. In the related works, a
variety of methods have been prescribed by various
authors to solve this problem of locating places like
atm, hotels. The proposed system of the application is
illustrated in Section III; the Section IV illustrates the
Conclusion and future Enhancement.
1.1 LITERATURE SURVEY
Prof. Sarita Sapkal, Jakil Syed,IshanGonekar,
Santosh Dhaigude, Amit Langoreproposed a
methodology named, “A Survey on Social Media
Based Personalized Travel Sequence
Recommendation”thatapersonalisedtravelsequence
system uses the user’sfacebookdataliketagsofphotos
, location of places visited by the user and thus
recommends the users automatically the place to visit
for the travellers.[1]. This system mainly focuson the
travelling packages used by the companies and
recommends places based on the social media tags.
Vincent W. Zheng, Yu Zheng, Xing Xie, Qiang
Yang proposed a system titled, “Collaborative
Location and Activity Recommendations with GPS
History Data”which proposedthe system which
worked on the problem of time-awarepointoflocation
recommendation,whichaimsatrecommendingalistof
point of locations for a user to visit at a given time. To
exploit both geographical and temporal influences in
time-awarepointoflocationrecommendation.[2]. The
disadvantage is taken a more time.
Fei yu, Zhijun Li, Shouxu Jiang, Shirong Lin
projected a methodology named,“Point-of-Interest
Recommendation For Location Promotion In
Location -Based Social Networks” which selects the
list of POIs with the greatest influence for
recommending users.In social networks, influence is
often used to help businesses to attract more users.
Each target user has a different influence on different
POI in social networks[3]. The main disadvantage of
the paper is that it provides point-of -location to the
user only if the user has visited the places according to
their social media.

gets the initial ranking list of landmarks via text
matching. [5]. The advantage is, maximize the
satisfaction and minimize the information load. Less
efficiency is a disadvantage of this paper.
2. PROPOSED SYSTEM
In this section, the application is designed in
such a way that it works on both server and client
side.The general design of the server design is
portrayed in figure-3.1. This framework is designed in
such a way that it works to add point of location in the
Google Map.The general design of the client design is
portrayed in figure-3.2. In the client side, the essential
information to locate the place the user is searching is
given to the application by the user. once the
information is available the application generates a
number of point-of-location to the user andfromthose
location the user selects the preferred location.
The Figure-3.1 and Figure-3.2 represents
server side and client side respectively.

The The travel sequence application comprises of
number of modules where each modules has its own
functionality. The modules of the android application
includes,
 Place Registration
 User Registration
 Specification of Place
 Path Finding

Each of these modules contribute to the working ofthe
travel sequence application. The Administrator of the
application has to manage the server sideofaddingthe
point of location(POI) to the Google Map service
provided by the android handset.

2.1 PLACE REGISTRATION
This module mainly works on the server side of the
application. The place registration module is
maintained and handled by the administrator of the
application. In this application the administrator
registers the location of hospital or hotels or tourist
places on the Google map service. Along with adding
the location of a place, the administrator also adds
additional information such as the official website of
the place , the review collected from people are also
included along with the registered location.
As this module works on the server side, GCM server
has to be started before adding the location on the
map. Once the GCM server has been initiated the
administrator can add places according to the
category supported by the application. The category
supported by application include hotels, hospitals,
tourist places, schools and ATMs.
